A graph \(G\) is \(k\)-degenerate if every subgraph of \(G\) has a vertex of degree less than \(k\). The author proves that the vertex set of any planar graph can be decomposed into two sets such that one of them induces a 3-degenerate graph and the other induces a 2-degenerate graph. He also proves that the vertex set of any planar graph can be decomposed into two sets each of which induces a subgraph with no cycle of length larger than three.
